Some guy won the lottery and instead of doing something noble or charitable decided to use that money to start up a woman’s wrestling promotion (so yes, Someone Bought This) complete with Jimmy Hart as an on-screen character. If you were trying to make me hate your lame vanity woman’s wrestling promotion, this annoying trailer featuring a lousy song, shoe-horned Continue Reading...

It Came From YouTube: The Gobbledy Gooker Goes To Work (Episodes 1 and 2)
5 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Mon, 25 November 2013, 10:09So basically this is “The Gobbledy Gooker And The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day”? I so want that “Reserved Parking- The Gobbledy Gooker” sign....
It Came From YouTube: The Gobbledy Gooker’s debut is met with silence
15 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Mon, 25 November 2013, 02:00This is of course The Gobbledy Gooker’s infamous debut (after months of hype) at Survivor Series 1990. Obviously R.D inducted this years and years ago, and he’s the namesake for our Gooker award, but you really need to hear just how dead the crowd is throughout the entire ordeal. You can almost hear the disappointed “Aw! That’s it?” from the Continue Reading...
It Came From YouTube: The complete Brawl For All boxing tournament.
21 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Sat, 23 November 2013, 18:27This is your chance to watch the complete Brawl For All boxing tournament from the “exciting” start to the stunning finish where Butterbean nearly knocks poor Bart Gunn’s head off. Yes, I know that when I tune into a wrestling show, the very first thing I want to see is boxing! (Seriously, if you can sit through this whole thing Continue Reading...
It Came From YouTube: Yokozuna speaks! Fans instantly stop caring about him. Poor Yokozuna.
17 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Fri, 22 November 2013, 00:06After 4 years as a mostly silent monster heel (the most he’d said up until now was “YOSH!” and of course “BANZAI!”), Yokozuna finally speaks up at In Your House 6 in 1996 about how Jim Cornette had been mistreating him, and immediately becomes a good guy. And he speaks perfect English much to the audience’s surprise and confusion. Man, Continue Reading...
It Came From YouTube: Almost everyone fails to body slam Yokozuna on the U.S.S Intrepid.
13 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Thu, 21 November 2013, 02:00I just like watching Crush and Randy Savage fail miserably at attempting to body slam Yokozuna before Lex shows up in a helicopter to get it done....
It Came From YouTube: Mean Gene Okerlund has sticky goo on his hand! Do we want to know how that happened?!
4 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Wed, 20 November 2013, 23:18Right smack dab in the middle of his feud with The Ultimate Warrior, Papa Shango decides to put a voodoo curse on Mean Gene Oklerlund that causes mysterious black goo to pour out of his sleeve and onto his hand- I was half expecting Jed Clampett to show up “shootin’ at some crude. Oil, that is! Black gold! Texas tea!”. He Continue Reading...
It Came From YouTube: Goldberg eats Spree candy
9 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Tue, 19 November 2013, 07:27Goldberg enjoys (?) some Spree Candy which should make you want to go buy some, I guess. I wonder what the director had to tell Bill before he yelled “ACTION!”? “Okay Goldberg, we want you to look shocked, and then smile and nod. Got it?”....
It Came From YouTube: WCW Backstage Assault- one of the worst wrestling video games of all time.
23 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Mon, 18 November 2013, 04:06This is Joe Gagne’s review of WCW Backstage Assault for the Sony Playstation (it was also released for the Nintendo 64). A WCW wrestling game that takes places entirely backstage… so there’s no actual ring for you to wrestle in in this wrestling game. Brilliant! Check out the oddball roster choices Joe helpfully outlines for us. If you ever wanted Continue Reading...
It Came From YouTube: Shane Douglas + The Fat Boys + Skateboarding = Best video ever.
13 Submitted by "The Big Cheese" Paul Kraft on Sat, 16 November 2013, 03:35Yes, that’s The Fat Boys’ (remember them?) cover of “Wipe Out” used for The Dynamic Dudes theme song. Shane Douglas and John Laurinaitis both probably wish you’d forget about this particular point in their careers. Look! They love to eat pizza and drink soda just like I do! They’re so fun-loving and relatable. And you thought Dean Douglas was the Continue Reading...
